Revert the full commit

Sometimes you may want to undo a whole commit with all changes. Instead of going through all the changes manually, you can simply tell git to revert a commit, which does not even have to be the last one. Reverting a commit means to create a new commit that undoes all changes that were made in the bad commit. Just like above, the bad commit remains there, but it no longer affects the the current master and any future commits on top of it.

git revert {commit_id}

About History Rewriting

Delete the last commit

Deleting the last commit is the easiest case. Let's say we have a remote origin with branch master that currently points to commit dd61ab32. We want to remove the top commit. Translated to git terminology, we want to force the master branch of the origin remote repository to the parent of dd61ab32:

2021 Update: Easiest option is Justin's repo and image

Just run this from your Mac terminal and it'll drop you in a container with full permissions on the Docker VM. This also works for Docker for Windows for getting in Moby Linux VM (doesn't work for Windows Containers).

docker run -it --rm --privileged --pid=host justincormack/nsenter1

Win zip()

I don't often use zip(), but by coincidence this week I ran into it a few times, using both Python and JavaScript. In the former, it's a built-in, but in the latter it's typically provided by a library like D3. And it struck me as kind of a fun warm-up challenge. How would you write this function in modern JavaScript?

Well, let's see how D3 does it. Oh, it's a wrapper around transpose(), here we go...

import min from "./min.js";

function length(d) {

How to create an HTTPS certificate for localhost domains

This focuses on generating the certificates for loading local virtual hosts hosted on your computer, for development only.

Do not use self-signed certificates in production ! For online certificates, use Let's Encrypt instead (tutorial).

Open File App\Providers\AppServiceProvider

Change method boot

use Carbon\Carbon;


public function boot()
{
	config(['app.locale' =&gt; 'id']);

Python installation guide

These are my notes, not a generic solution. They are not meant to work anywhere outside my machines. Update version numbers to whatever are the current ones while you do this.

Install `asdf` and its python plugin, then install Python

asdf lives in https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf

Follow its installation instructions, which at the moment of writing were:

	consumer_key = 'your-consumer-key'
	consumer_secret = 'your-consumer-secret'
	access_token = 'your-access-token'
	access_secret = 'your-access-secret'

	ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3 -an -vf "scale=-1:1440, reverse" -preset veryslow -g 2 output.mp4

	// -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3
	// Encode for web with a good balance of browser compatibility and compression ratio

	// -an
	// Strip audio tracks

	// -vf "scale=-1:1440, reverse"
	// Scale video to 1440px wide, maintaining aspect ratio

	__label__2 Stuning even for the non-gamer: This sound track was beautiful! It paints the senery in your mind so well I would recomend it even to people who hate vid. game music! I have played the game Chrono Cross but out of all of the games I have ever played it has the best music! It backs away from crude keyboarding and takes a fresher step with grate guitars and soulful orchestras. It would impress anyone who cares to listen! ^_^
	__label__2 The best soundtrack ever to anything.: I'm reading a lot of reviews saying that this is the best 'game soundtrack' and I figured that I'd write a review to disagree a bit. This in my opinino is Yasunori Mitsuda's ultimate masterpiece. The music is timeless and I'm been listening to it for years now and its beauty simply refuses to fade.The price tag on this is pretty staggering I must say, but if you are going to buy any cd for this much money, this is the only one that I feel would be worth every penny.
	__label__2 Amazing!: This soundtrack is my favorite music of all
